STORM 2

pleasant sounding buzzer

Recommended Posts

fitted a Maplin's buzzer for the lights but it sounds awful - anyone know of a nicer sounding buzzer or even those ones that go 'bong-bong' as opposed to a continuous shrieking buzz??

I fitted the same buzzer.

 

2 choices ...

1) Remember to turn the lights off before you exit the vehicle

2) Get hold of a buzzer from a breaker from a car which has a nice bong bong sound

I have to say the bong-bong things are far more annoying than a nasty tinny little buzzer, IMHO...

Ever driven a hire car in the US? God, everything goes bong bong...

try rs components they do a mini siren called the banshee which can produce pretty much any tone you like (including the star trek whoop sad i know) and the bong bong noise and can produce 120dB (it is adjustable by the way) we used to fit them to industrial control panels in places like jcb or bicc i think they are about a tenner

Which wires did you tap into Storm? I made up a lights on buzzer circuit (also from Maplins) last yeat but never got round to installing it. Want to get it in now as I keep leaving the lights on!

 

I prefer bong-bong too :lol:

yeah, Kev - I just used the guide from the CCGB -very straightforward - if you want any photos let me know because I'm taking it apart again to stick on a one way diode across the live wire cos Im getting reverse earth current feed which keeps my interior cabin light on!
